Chicken Parmesan Meatballs

July 17, 2017

Chicken parm is one of our favorite hot sandwiches as well as one of my favorites to order at Italian restaurants. This recipe is much easier than pounding out chicken breasts and produces an excellent crisp meatball.

Ingredients

3 oz. panko crumbs, divided

4 oz. Parmesan cheese, grated, divided

1.5 lbs. ground chicken

1 large egg, lightly beaten

2 tbsp. olive oil, divided

1 tbsp. dried basil

2 tsp. garlic powder

2 tsp. dried parsley

1 tsp. dried oregano

1 tsp. kosher salt

2.5 cups marinara sauce

4 oz. low-moisture mozzarella cheese, grated

Directions

Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Mix together 1/2 ounce of the panko with 1 ounce of the Parmesan in a small bowl. Set aside.
